University of Missouri-St. Louis (UMSL) College of Education students learned about job opportunities with ASAP's six providers that serve more than 2,300 students at 29 after school locations at a job fair on September 4, 2014. By working at an ASAP program, instead of a traditional part time job in retail or food service, UMSL COE students will gain real life career and educational experience. ASAP's program staffs, students, and parents will benefit from the student's coursework at UMSL COE related to best practices in early childhood and K-12 education.

ARCHS and UMSL's College of Education formed a partnership earlier this year that provides students with the opportunity to secure part-time employment at an ASAP program site for the 2014-2015 school year.
